If this ends of being true, you'll be seeing alot more of my boys in green
From Bolter and Chainsword:
Salamanders Special Character:
NOT Tu’shan – his name is Vulkan Estan he is the ex-4th Company Captain and is a kind of wandering champion. Apparently he has almost inquisition like leverage over the Salamander Chapter, as his task is to seek out and recover 9 holy relics made by Vulkan before he disappeared. Apparently if all 9 are recovered Vulkan will return. Estan has recovered 3 and is using them. One is a Salamander Hide Cloak, one is a Gauntlet which counts as a Heavy Flamer and allows him to re-roll to wound. The third is the Spear of Vulkan - a S6 master crafted power weapon.
On top of this he allows any and all Salamanders in the army to replace their “vanilla” Combat Tactics with the Salamanders version – they get Master Crafted Thunder Hammers for free. All Melta/flamer weapons in the army, no matter their source, count as twin linked – also for free.
In addition (this is a general marine rule) Storm Shields now grant a 3+ Inv. Save against shooting and combat. And all Salamanders Terminator Assault squads come with them, and there thunder hammers are master crafted if Estan is presen

Oh, great. . . terminators with a 3+ invunerable save.
After playing against the wolf talisman terminators this weekend, I've got to say that what this game really needs is more models that can move and fire their assault cannons, or any heavy weapon, and are (statistically) impossible to kill.
What are the point value of these guys?

Assuming the points cost refelects the current Dark Angel Codex, a squad of five would be 215 points.

Okay, somebody please tell me that the Codex creep senario is just a lie. This again proves it.
Be afraid of the new Necron Codex People, be very afraid.
